The militant transversality and the political participation

Abstract

This article proposes to give an account of how militants engage in different spaces of participation assuming diverse commitments and establishing a process of “multi-positioning or transversality” along
their militant trajectory. It analyzes the history of a feminist militant from the province of Jujuy, Argentina, using the career perspective
proposed by Howard Becker, which puts forward a longitudinal analysis of trajectories considering the objective and subjective aspects of the militant’s account. Methodologically, a qualitative perspective was developed from the use of the life story technique.
